A CHARITY that helps older residents across the county has a new home.
Reading mayor, Cllr Rachel Eden, cut the ribbon of Age UK Berkshire’s Broad Street Mall offices on Tuesday, January 18.
For the opening ceremony, she was joined by Age UK staff, friends and community stakeholders to celebrate.
After she declared the offices open, there was tea and cake to celebrate.
The charity hopes that its new location will make it more accessible for those who need its help and support.
Wheelchair friendly, there are disabled toilets nearby, and it is a short walk from Reading’s railway station. Bus stops and taxi ranks are outside the Broad Street Mall, while there is also a car park in the shopping centre.
A spokesperson said: “As their doors are now open, feel free to drop in and visit for a chat, a cup of tea and an abundance of resources, leaflets and friendly faces.
“Age UK Berkshire look forward to seeing you in their shiny new office.”
